| Abstract |
In the present study, the population genetic structure of two free-living marine nematode species, Rhabditis (Pellioditis) marina and Halomonhystera disjuncta, was analysed. The principal aims were to explore 1) dispersal capacity, 2) cryptic diversity and 3) intra- and interspecific molecular variation and to investigate 4) to what extent metapopulation dynamics govern genetic structuring in both species. |
